Thanks so very, very much Janice and Eberhard!

I've forwarded your good information to all the cousins!

I had that book, Janice, but looked for it all morning and couldn't find it.
I must have lent it out with some others last year. A good reminder to
ask for their return now!

Thanks again to you both for all the kindness!
